Who Will Vouch for it

If one could believe one-hundredth
part of what people say in praise of
Johnson'S Anodyne Liniment, it
would be an easy matter apparently
to maintain good health to extreme
old age. Now here are three certif-
Gates recently sent lis. We don't
vOuch for them, but it seems probable
that the statements made are true, as
the parties could have no interest in
publishing anything except to benefit
fellow sufferers.
South Windham, Vt.
] have never sold any of your med
icine, but have been using it in my
family. We reserve the remainder
for future use and send pay for all.
We use Johnson's Anodyne Lini-
ment for a nasal wash for catarrh, and
we are delighted with it. We had
tried almost everything recommend
ed for catarrh, but find Johnson's
Anodyne Liniment far superior to
any yet used. l use it with COM
mon douche, according to your di-
rection. J. f. WHIPPLE.

1t is well that those who are OPP
posed, and those who favor prohibit
ton, should know what has been
finally determined by the Supreme
Court of the United States, touching
the most vital question involved, to
wit: The right of the States to pass
prohibitOry laws which operate to
destroy the value of property in
which capital may have been invested
before the passage of such laws, and
which property in its nature is not
adapted to any other use than that
for wAich it was created, the manu-
iacture of whisky, ale and beer.

They feel dull and sleepy; the
mouth has a bad taste, especi-

of sticky slime collects about
the teeth. The appetite is poor.
There is a feeling like a heavy
load on the stomach; sometimes
a faint, all-gone sensation at
the pit of the stomach which
food does not satisfy. The
eyes are sunken, the hands
and feet become cold and feel
clammy. After a while a
cough sets in, at first dry, but
after a few months it is at
tended with a greenish colored
expectoration. The patient
feels tired all the while, and
sleep does not seem to afford
any rest. After a time he be-
comes nervous, irritable and
gloomy, and has evil forebod-
ings. There is a giddiness, a
sort of whirling sensation in
the head when sing up sud-

"ostive; the skin is dry and

thick and stagnant; the whites

the E3eSgAr Student.

The Opera House was crowded
last evening to witness the perform
ance by the German Opera Com
pany, of Millecker's musical gem,
The Beggar Student" Of course
the majority of the audience could
not understand the dialogue and
the German citizens who did. seem
ed also to enjoy both the dialogue
and the fact that they were extract
ing more solid comfort out of the
piece than their American neigh
bors.
Carl Friese personated the irasci-
bic Ollendorf to immense perfec-
ton and it was very happy piece
of character acting. Sophie Affcnry
and Felis Schmitt are of
the most charming order and the
music of the Opera is sprinkled
with the most delicious effects.
Virginia people who attend their
performance will enjoy rare treat.

The Auction Yesterday

The auction at Keyser & Elrod's
yesterday drew large crowd. The
carriages went first, and some at
ridiculously low figures. When the
harnesses were put up the bidding
was more spirited, the jokes of the
auctieneer livening up the sale.
The horses were sold last and sew
eral people gathered in some very
good bargains. Raycraft Bros.
were the heaviest purchasers. John
Sweeny purchased a pair of horses
and was offered 500 for bis bar
gain FIVE minutes afterwards.

Mr. Stanford's own story the trans
portation of the vegetables cost
him nothing IF the farmer had
charged him 20 cents for the short
haul of six miles he would have
made but little profit Mr. Stan
ford ought to remember the fact
that he cleared two bits because he
took advantage Of the benefits Of
cheap transportation.

The Carson APPEAL opposes an
entertainment in aid of the public
schools on the grounds that it would
be cheaper for parents to subscribe
the money proposed to be raised by
means Of the entertainment than to
dress up their children to take part
in the same. Do Carson parents
dress their children so poorly that
they are ashamed to have them ap-
pear before the public IN ery-day
clothes? We think not.-News
Reporter.
We are astonished that a news
paper publisher in Nevada would
print such nonsense as the above.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
+ From our regular correspondent. ]

| WASHINGTON, April 29th.-I
would be difficult to tell what isssgo
ing on In Washington just new
Everything and everybody seem!
to be in a semi -quiescent state
holding itself in reserve apparently
for the merry month of May, which
will be full of interesting events
and people crowded all together
Besides the big drill which is to
take place in May, there will be re-
unions, meetings and conventions
operas, circuses, the Spring races,
aud indeed something for people of
all sorts of tastes and ages and in
clinatiens and degrees of culture
and refinement to attend and see
or hear.
This city of bronze and marble
statues is to have another unwilling
on the twelfth of May. The bronze
statue of Garfield, which has been
contributed by the Society of the
Army of the Cumberland, has ar
rived and has been placed in po-
sitiOn. 1t stands upon a granite
pedestal which was erected for it
in small circle at the intersection
of First streetaud Marysvillle Aven-
ue, and Southwesterly from the
Capitol. The pedestal was author
Ized by act of Congress and $780, 600
was appropriated for it. Near the
base of the pedestal three life size
symbolical figures in bronze restup-
on granite brackets. These repre-
sent the three types of manhood
depicted in Garfeld's career. viz
the Student, the Warrior and the
Statesman.
The statue is heroic in size, ten
feet six inches in height, and
weight 5000 pounds. The pedestal
is about eighteen feet in height,
giving the head of the statue an ell
ovation of nearly thirty feet. At
present it is concealed from public
view by being swathed in folds of
Of black cambria and looks very
comical as the drapery clings close
" and the outlines of the figure are
plainly seen. Yesterday it was IN
yelled while it was being photo
but it will now remain in
its black robe until it is unveiled
amid imposing ceremonies.
The inscriptions upon the granite
shaft are placed upon three sides,
a new departure in this
respect. They are as follows:
Southwest face, James a. Gar
field. 1S3l-1S81. On the South
east face, Major-General. Z. S v,
Mem Der of Congress, Senator and
President of the United States Of
Or the North face, erect
ed by his Comrades of the Society
of the Army Of the Cumberland,
May u, 1887.
This makes nineteen outdoor
memorials to public men, whose
deeds or whose virtues have secured
for them a place in enduring mar

t0l. There are now six bronze
statutes; jackson, Wash
